Giving to a maternal aunt from zakah if her husband is stingy

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: My maternal aunt’s husband is a stingy man who does not give her enough money to meet her needs. Is it permissible for me to give her from the zakah?

Answer:
If she is in need, and her husband does not give her what she needs, then you give her from the zakah what completes her need. This is charity and maintaining family ties.
